Nope... Audio Playback quality through headphones...

All

im 3days on this ROM now with the Kernel provided... Battery still seems to be draining fast... Im thingking twice of flashing another Kernel (Unity V7) becuase of i read somewhere that it has some bugs...

i know some of us here are using V7 Kernel, any feedback on Batt life? What are the bugs?
[HTC Sensation] ardsar:
Quality of playback through headphones is as good as stock. Battery life is excellent on stock kernel. Seems strange how some are still getting poor battery life. In the "testing" menu (*#*#4636#*#*) i have changed network type to gsm auto(PRL) instead of WCDMA preferred which apparently reduces power as cell tower information is used rather than the phone constantly searching for a 3G network.
[HTC Sensation] baadnewz:
battery is good, i have accurate feedback from 2 sensations both running 2.2.2. after a work day (12hrs) both have >50% left. as long as the phone gets me from morning to evening is fine for me

Hi Baadnewz

i have a serious problem with the smartass governor.

The setCPu is not working, as soon as i set the smartass on setCPU the phone is restarting contiously. So i had to go back to 2.1 that is working perfectly.

Anybody else having the same problem?

Moreover in setCPU vesion 2.2.4 i do not see the standard setting for MSM 8×60 and i have used a setCPU.txt for cpu frequencies.

Please help
[HTC Sensation] ardsar:
my post was agreeing with you - this has been the best ROM for battery life.
[HTC Sensation] baadnewz:
i know, sorry if my post reflected anything else :)
[HTC Sensation] baadnewz:
dont use setcpu

default governor is already set to smartass.
[HTC Sensation] knights.JayTana:
im particular in sound quality because i often use my phone as my DAP... now, we all know (user's feedback/reviews and comprehensive review from trusted sites) that Sensation's SQ leaves much to be desired, though its one of the best from HTC so far, but falls shorter than let's say N8 or iPhone.. (just for comparison sake, im not looking for trouble here)...

Thanks for the feedback...
[HTC Sensation] v11lemans:
Thanks

I'll proceed in that way.

I was only trying to optimize the battery usage but i uderstand is useless with smartass governor set as default.
[HTC Sensation] Rumball:
I agree...sound is distorted, especially at high frequencies (for example cymbals) . Streaming through Bluetooth-A2DP is particularly bad for this. I read somewhere that uninstalling HTC's equalizer process helps but never tried this myself.

Unfortunately this is stock behavior so must be something in the kernel...
[HTC Sensation] Rumball:
A user had already responded to your original post (and I will +1 it here) that song scrolling in the music app works just fine. Therefore no ROM issue but rather a problem unique to your installation. Try wiping music data or reflashing
[HTC Sensation] undercover:
What's the point? Seriously, i didn't get smartphone to use it with gprs, i got it to be used with HSPDA.

Edit. Just done some reading. Actually makes sense, my 3g is not extremely strong, so I'll probably get stuck with 2g most of the time, but i'll test it, thanks for idea. :)

Now, on topic. Baad, even you will have hard time trying to convince me to change from 2.2.1 :p

Smartass2 is the next update for me, no need for anything else tbh.
[HTC Sensation] ardsar:
the phone will still lock onto HSPDA, it just uses info from towers as to what the best signal is rather than having to search for itself.
[HTC Sensation] teshxx:
How did you edit/save the change? I couldn't save the changes.
[HTC Sensation] ardsar:
Just select the option you want from the drop down menu.
[HTC Sensation] teshxx:
It doesn't save then though. For ex. Let's say if I try to save radio to US it says unsuccessful.
[HTC Sensation] Arde:
Hi, maybe i'm little stupid but where i find GingerThyparancy Inverted Versions good yellow flower wallpaper, if i change GingerThyparancy Arched Version then wallpaper is gone :(
[HTC Sensation] ardsar:
For the uk WCDMA or GSM options can be used. I use GSM auto (PRL). I don't know what options are selecteable in other countries.
[HTC Sensation] DeezNotes:
For some reason my battery drains very fast too. I pulled a logcat and didn't really see anything useful (that I could see). I'm guessing maybe it's because I'm on T-Mobile US?

I restored my stock ROM without data, keeping the new radio (recommended by all the devs), flashed the new RIL files and my battery life is a LOT better. I really like this InsertCoin ROM... I just wish I could get this ROM to perform like my stock ROM (pic below is from being off the charger since yesterday afternoon):

:confused:
[HTC Sensation] Axefield:
Sorry for OT.

You can extract the Inverted versions .apk and copy the wallpaper from there. You can use Root Explorer to extract it.
[HTC Sensation] teshxx:
Nm got it. Just had to wait for gsm auto prl to connect then changed it to USA radio. Let's see if it makes any diff.

every carrier is special and wants it's special identification for mms to work properly. i helped him to change /system/custominze/MNS/default.xml to match carrier requirements. pm him and ask for that file, i don't have it and ofc i forgot what we change in it :)

Ok Guys and girls,

Need a little help here.

How can I get into this acount again or do I have to establish a new one?

Android market searching box issue.

Thanks for this ROM.

Working fine.

But when I press search on market, the search box background is not white color.

It's looks like one image and very hard to see the text.

Anyone know how to fix it? or can I return back the old version of market?

Thanks for any reply.

[HTC Sensation] gcarloss:
Can't wait to try that out. I'm excited.

I talked about it yesterday with baadnews and he told me that we could see a release the next week.

It's now himself who develop it.

Flashed via fastboot the recovery, radio & rpm.img files and so far no reboot/restarts yet for almost 3 hours....hope it doesn't at all;). Will report if otherwise after a day or two...

[HTC Sensation] TheGeorgiaSwagger:
Only issue I had was the lockscreen wouldnt respond when i would touch it, which I hadnt had that issue since I was on stock.. However, I did a clean wipe and reinstalled and havent had that issue since.. This ROM is amazing. I greatly appreciate your work Baad.

? I don't remember how the camera behaved on the stock ROM.
[HTC Sensation] jlevy73:
I'm on 2.2.2 with stock kernel and ninjump worked fine. Didn't try cordy but will do so shortly. Just played asphalt 6 and supersonic, no issues there either
[HTC Sensation] vincepg13:
I noticed it happens when the graphics get heavy, I.e. you hit 3 things in a row and your ninja does its special move & sometimes itl take a minute or so of playing before graphics mess up.

But yer try cordy, with that you should get it quickly, if you don't then I'm not sure how its possible, guess your extremely lucky.
[HTC Sensation] jlevy73:
Ok, I will try Cordy and let you know
[HTC Sensation] Hoggles:
Try Cordy!!

Holy Mother.....

I thought...nah...these things don't usually happen to me. It's a very real bug as I just found out. I'm guessing Baadz and others agree it's not just the games, but the stock kernel.

Cordy's menu and opening loading screens are fine, but when the game actually starts...it goes mega grainy and even when you exit the game.... Senasations UI is wack. Gotta fully reboot to fix.

Thanks HTC!

Quietly Brilliantly Worse.

PS...So you'll know... Ninjump is made by the same company that makes Paper Toss. They have been known to be very invasive with personal info from peeps phones. FYI.

anyone else having weird problems with the battery? had mine die twice on me in a row where battery monitor says it was at 45%. won't restart unless the phone is hooked to a charger for 20-30 minutes. testing another battery now.
[HTC Sensation] jlevy73:
With Cordy I saw what you mean as soon as I launched the app. That's definitely not good.
[HTC Sensation] jlevy73:
Agree, it wasn't pretty. So if I load up a custom kernel the problem resolves itself?

Hey baadnews. ..

Think setting dalvik heap to 40m in build.prop will cause any issues?

I set it to use the asus lwp.

Not a big deal just wondering if you did that how it would impact the rom.

[HTC Sensation] jlevy73:
Thanks, I'm flashing the file now :)
[HTC Sensation] B-Man2005:
whats asus lwp ?

edit : ohh ... its a live wallpaper ? and why do you have to change the heap size for this ?
[HTC Sensation] tinker2000:
yes, doesnt seem to show battery state properly. If i reboot it shows an increase in battery.. Seems to do it on various roms for me (I use gauge battery meter)

Battery life also much worse than stock... I can cope with that though
[HTC Sensation] beagz:
Heap change because it doesn't load on 32m. This was a solution listed in the ported asus lwp thread. And it solved the problem. The lwp all work after edit and reboot.

Hi Guys,

I have a couple of weird issues,but minor issues: -

1. When i try to close some apps using the task manager, some take 3 or 4 goes to kill. For example, I try to kill market, it disappears and then reappears. Noticed also with email app.

2. When I try to uninstall some apps, the screen sometimes goes all flickery and then the clear data button enables. Without clearing data some apps wont uninstall.

Like I said weird. I have been using unity v7 but will try stock and see what happens. Also have patched the img file from rmk40

Cheers
[HTC Sensation] B-Man2005:
i dont think its something to worry about... i got the thing with the flickering thing when trying to uninstall apps even on stock rom.

and market popping up again after i closed it ... i dont care :)

Marty - I'm a Telstra using Z710a owner. The attachment is an update that I apply to Telstra-ize my Sensation. It includes updated '/system/customize/default.xml', '/system/customize/CID/default.xml', '/system/customize/MNS/default.xml', '/system/build.prop' and also the TelstraOne application. Flash this from recovery.

Please let me know if it doesn't work for you.

Edit: I have incorporated Tangcla's MMS fix and updated for IC 2.2.2.

Edit: Please be aware that some of these customizations are only picked up on first boot. Steps would be 1) Full wipe 2) Flash IC 2.2.2 3) Flash Telstra pack 4) Reboot
